Why did they start shouting and why did former President John Mahama decide to attend for the first time State of the Nation\u2019s Address.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMind you, I\u2019m not sure if he\u2019s ever attended in the eight years of President Akufo-Addo\u2019s government. Former President John Mahama decided never to attend. Today, he came in there, I\u2019m not sure what is it that he was signalling, but I tell you the good people of Ghana are going to make sure that the NDC sits in opposition till thy kingdom come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Explore the world of impactful news with CitiNewsroom on WhatsApp!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on the link to join the Citi Newsroom channel for curated, meaningful stories tailored just for YOU:\u00a0https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaCYzPRAYlUPudDDe53x<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>No spams, just the stories that truly matter! #StayInformed #CitiNewsroom #CNRDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minister of Trade and Industry, Kobina Tahir Hammond, has declared that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will remain in opposition indefinitely.
